MARVELLOUS CHANGES.
WHAT THE FUTURE WILL BE TO THOSE
WHO REFUSE To BELIEVE.

Is this country unconsciously under
going wonderful change, is the change
to take place before we are aware of the
fact, and when it hes taken place will we
wonder why we did not see it before it
was too late?
Those that see the changes early avail
themselves early, and thereby receive
benefit.
The shrewd iron man sees the iron in
terest transferred from Pittsburg and
Pennsylvania to Birmingham, Alabama,
| and in his far sightedness sees the furn-
| aces in Pennsylvania torn down and
deserted for this new and prolific field.
1t is claimed by the iron men of Alabama
that the low price at which iron can be
produced there will revolutionize the
| iron interests of the world.
We have seen the grain-growing cen
ters of this country shifted to the West.
We have seen the pork-packing industry
fit from Cincinnati to Chicago, and from
thence to Kansas city and Omaha
| Southern cotton mills undersell New
England and American markets, and
| challenge the world.
We have seen and are seeing AL this
take place before our eyes, and know
that other changes are taking place
equally as prominent, and we wonder as
we behold them. Ten years ago the in
| surance companies only required an
| analysis of the fluids when they were
taking insurance for very large amounts.
To-day no frst-class company will insure
any amount unless they have rigid
analysis of the fluids passed, and if any
of IianrIars
the application is rejected. In their
reports they show that the death of sixty
of every 100 people in this country, is
due either directly or Indirectly to such
disorders. The Brompton Hospital for
| Consumptives, London, England, re-
ports that sixty of every 1G0 victims of
consumption also have serious disorders
of the kidneys.
Among scientists for the treatment of
this dread malady the question is being
discussed
SIS not this disorder the real cause of
consumption ?"
Ten years ago the microscope was
something seldom found in a physicians
Office; now every physician of standing
has one and seldom visits his patients
without calling for a sample of fluids for
examination.
Why is all this2 Is it possible that
we of the present generation are to die
of diseases caused by kidney disorders
or shall we master the cause by Warner
safe cure, the only recognized specific,
and thus remove the effects? 1t Is
established beyond a doubt that very
large percentage of deaths in this country
are traceable to diseased kidneys. For
years the proprietors of Warmers safe
cure have been insisting that there is no
sound health when the kidneys are dis
eased, and they enthusiastically press
their specific for this terrible disorder
upon public attention. We are con-
tinually hearing its praises sounded.
This means wonders!
Cannot the proprietors of this great
remedy, who have been warning us of
the danger, tell us how to avoid a disease
that at first is so unimportant, and is 80
fatal in its termination? Are we to hope
against hope, and wait without our re
ward?
The most significant of all changes,
however, that we of to-day can note is
this radical change of view to which the
public has been educated: 1t was for
merry thought that the kidneys We're Of
very small Importance; to-day, we be
lieve it is generally admitted that there
can be no such thing as sound health III
any organ if they are in the least degree
deranged.
